Rising To the View
Waken yourself for each morning
knowing you’re going to see sunrise
over the mountainside so fully
this is receiving a momentous prize
How many waken to such a thing?
privileged am I to this setting
looking over the bay way beyond
this so surreal all that I am getting
Looking straight on to this morning glory
such lovely colour one has on view
it holds one so transfixed indeed
wondrous indeed so beautiful blue
Many would pay thousands for this view
here I have it for completely free
what a wonder it is to behold
blessed am I having eyes to see
(Thinking of the image of the flower Morning Glory)
